BAGHDAD: Iraq’s army has asked residents to prepare to leave the Islamic State-held city of Falluja, state TV reported on Sunday, in a possible indication of an offensive.
The army “is asking the citizens that are still in Falluja to be prepared to leave the city through secured routes that will be announced later,” the channel said.
